    1984 120G grader

    Maybe it sucks air into fuel system? I think that’s what mine is currently doing.

    Ripper tooth spacing

    Your correct. I was picturing a low spot that gets ripped and rode on all the time. It would turn to soup but if it sets after ripping for the winter it should work.

    Ripper tooth spacing

    I’d think that spacing you have there is best for hard packed clay. To close and it will either stop you or push like a dozer blade. Are these spots in the track or the infield areas? I’d think if you ripped in the track that it would turn to soup when it rains.

    Case 9040B cab

    Haha ya probably should but never will. He should be dead anyway, survived three heart attacks and really bad squamous cell cancer that was close to the brain stem. I guess he figured it’s time when it’s time.

    Case 9040B cab

    1: My Dad 2: clearing trees 3: My Dad Lol he’s pretty hard on equipment normally but with his old age is getting careless. The other guy that was there is about 10 years younger and seemed a little concerned. He said my dad was totally unphased.

    Case 9040B cab

    I’ve got a very smashed cab on my 9040B. I’m looking for a replacement or a parts machine with a good cab. Do any other models like a 9010B or a 9060B have the same cab? I’ve been told Kobelco and Hitachi are basically the same machine from that time period. If that’s true I’d get one off one of...

    Any tricks to get JIC fittings started in cramped area's?

    “Just gotta get the right angle on the dangle.” Old guy used to say that.

    Can these come close to a Galion 503L grader?

    Hey, that might be a possibility

    Cat 12G horsepower upgrade or other options

    We got off topic on this one also! I bet if you had a good pyrometer and exhaust and boost gauges, you could safely turbo and turn up the fuel on these. We run a couple pulling tractors and you would be surprised how much heat a diesel can take before melting things.

    I’ve been told that the deer hunting is good around there also.

    Cat 12G horsepower upgrade or other options

    I’ve looked at the red dot online. Either rig up a bracket for an engine/belt driven or go with hydraulic driven somehow.

    Cat 12G horsepower upgrade or other options

    Bam1968, that looks like an area of Iowa that we hunt. JAJ, how did you do the air conditioning on a 12G?

    Cat 12G horsepower upgrade or other options

    Does your grader have air conditioning? That little cover on the roof?

    What are the berms for?

    Bought another grader 12G

    High jack away. I like it when these conversations spin off a little. Post a pic of the roller that goes on the ripper please. JAJ asked about power increases? I’m curious to. This one is natural aspirated and seems to have plenty of power on the road. Our old 966 loader has the same engine but...
